Ling Cage: I come from Hisakawa

Chapter 263 Canteen
"Look! Captain Mark is back!"

"There are quite a lot of supplies on the truck!"

What is the casualty situation this time?

"How long will this food last?"

"."

Amidst the murmurs of the crowd, the convoy drove into the lighthouse's location.

Ran Bing sat on the railing of the car, her face showing visible fatigue. Being a captain and being an adjutant were completely different experiences.

If it weren't for Mark, would I have been able to escape the spaceship today?
She sighed silently.

“You need to learn how to pilot a gravity vehicle as soon as possible. Every commander of the Lighthouse Hunters has ever been one who doesn’t know how to pilot a gravity vehicle,” Mark said, standing beside her.

"Dawn is yours now. I hope you can operate it with ease before the next mission."

Ran Bing pursed her lips: "I will try my best."

She had previously participated in the selection process for gravity body pilots, but she was not selected then.

The selection process for gravity body pilots at the Lighthouse is extremely selective, as gravity bodies are limited and only the most outstanding individuals are qualified to pilot them.

She was more than ten places short of being selected.

If given enough time to learn, she will definitely become an excellent gravity pilot. She just learns slowly, not that she can't learn.

"Keep going, I believe in you," Mark whispered.

Ran Bing turned her head: "Feixue, report on the casualties this time."

Feixue is now Ran Bing's adjutant.

Within Mark's small group, only Flying Snow was suitable to serve as his adjutant.

Feixue is calm and collected, unlike Mocheng who is impulsive, or Penny who always has her eyes glued to someone else. She is the only suitable candidate to serve as an adjutant.

“Fourteen hunters and thirteen transport team members were killed.” Feixue paused for a moment. “Compared to the previous average, this is considered high.”

After a two-second silence, Ran Bing replied, "Report it according to procedure."

She jumped out of the car, ignored everyone, and silently went to the armory, where she crawled into the gravity virtual training pod.

hum-

The training pod emitted a low rumble.

This training cabin is an old veteran in the armory, having witnessed thousands of hunters grow from novices to experts.

Its parts are hard to replace; the existing parts were all polished and re-polished by Jessica before being put in, which is why there is noticeable noise when it starts up.

Welcome to the Power Armor Simulator

This simulator is partially supported by ASH Internet of Things (ASH). If you encounter any problems during use, please contact ASH ASH staff for assistance.

Wishing you excellent results!

A few lines of light blue text rose before Ran Bing's eyes.

At the same time, the surrounding scenery gradually turned pitch black.

Please select your body type.

Four beams of light illuminated the darkness, each containing one of three different types of gravity entities, along with a large "Custom" label.

The three types of gravity bodies have different appearances; the one on the left is lighter, while the one on the right is heavier.

Ran Bing chose the middle option without hesitation.

The central gravity body is roughly similar to the gravity body of the lighthouse, and it is clearly the predecessor of the lighthouse gravity body.

The surroundings gradually lit up.

Ran Bing appeared inside a gravity body.

Ahead was a steel corridor, and noisy footsteps could be heard outside.

Ran Bing silently drew her chainsaw sword.

woo-

Three hours later, Ran Bing emerged from the simulation chamber, beads of sweat visibly rolling down her jawline.

She sat down in the simulator and rested for a while before walking out.

Her difficulty level today reached 6, while the standard for a Lighthouse Gravity Body pilot is 9. 6 is her original level.

To increase the difficulty by three levels, it will take at least half a month.

It's unknown how long it will take to reach Mark's level of perfect harmony between man and machine.

Ran Bing left the armory with a heavy heart.

Gollum-

Her stomach made a strange noise.

From the time she set off to carry out the mission until now, including the time spent on the round trip, almost ten hours have passed. In the meantime, she has only drunk a few sips of water and eaten a few unpalatable compressed biscuits.

Ran Bing strolled slowly toward the cafeteria.

The hunters' small canteen was definitely out of food at this time, but there was a large canteen outside.

The upper class and the lower class eat at different times; it is now the lower class's mealtime.

"Although the three laws have been abolished, our staple food is still insect cakes, and we only have one or two slices of bread with each meal."

"Hmph, the upper class is still eating as well as before."

"They say they've abolished the Three Laws, but our living conditions haven't improved much, and those upper-class people still look down on us."

"We're all human, so why are they considered superior to us?"

"Only the Light and Shadow Society is willing to accept us, but to join the Light and Shadow Society, we have to find a way to pass the priest's test, and so far no one has passed it."

"Lord Mark was just fooling everyone, did you really believe him?"

"Pah, Mark isn't a good person either!"

"."

Ran Bing stood outside the cafeteria, her already tired face turning extremely pale.

Is this what the common people actually think?
As the commander of the Hunters, Ran Bing usually eats in the Hunters' restaurant and never comes to the main canteen.

Ran Bing walked silently into the cafeteria.

"Hello, Captain Ran Bing!"

"Everyone be quiet, Captain Ran Bing is here."

"So what if they're here? Didn't we abolish the Three Laws and make everyone equal?"

"Shut up, you!"

"No!"

Ran Bing scanned the entire cafeteria.

At this moment, all those dining in the main dining hall were commoners; there wasn't a single upper-class person among them.

The noise in the cafeteria had decreased considerably, which ironically made the sharp sounds stand out even more.

Ran Bing didn't say anything.

She quietly walked to the food window and took a serving of food.

Two insect cakes, a slice of bread, and a glass of water with added vitamins.

These days, the food provided by the lighthouse to the upper class and the dusters is actually the same, but the upper class has accumulated some food that they didn't eat before.

In addition, it is entirely reasonable that the meals of employees in certain departments are slightly higher due to the excessive mental exertion or higher physical demands.

The Lighthouse produces milk and other food products; we cannot destroy all related means of production simply because the Three Laws have been abolished.

Ran Bing sat down with her tray in her hand.

She picked up the insect cake, chewed it with water without expression, and showed no disgust whatsoever.

"Stop talking nonsense. Didn't you see Captain Ran Bing eating the same food as us?"

"It's just an act. The hunters' food hasn't changed at all. My buddy who went on the ground operation told me that!"

Ran Bing listened to the shrill sound, silently finished everything on her plate, and then stood up.

She spoke slowly.

"Lord Mark has made a great determination and put in a lot of effort that you can't see in order to abolish the three laws. If anyone has any questions, don't hide in the crowd and whisper. Come to me in person and I will try my best to answer your questions."
